OraQuick® Clinical Trial Data: Reproducibility
- 3 sites, 3 lots, 3 different days, 3 operators/site (9 total)
- Blind-coded panel of 5 contrived whole blood specimens
- 4 antibody-positive and 1 antibody-negative specimen
- 20-minute read time: 404/405 = 99.8%
- 55-60 minute read time: 405/405 = 100%
OraQuick® CLIA '88 Waiver
- OraQuick® was granted a CLIA '88 waiver on January 31, 2003
- Data submitted in support of waiver
- At 4 sites, 100 lay users with no laboratory experience tested panels
of 6 masked randomized specimens
- 2 negative, 2 low positive, 2 high positive
- No statistically significant difference between lay user results and correct
results
- Sales and use restrictions remain in place for the waived test
- Quality Assurance program recommendations for rapid HIV tests
are being developed by CDC
